Choosing Internal Memory or MMC/SD Card

The camera offers two options for storing pictures and videos:

Internal Memory —store pictures and videos in the 8 MB internal memory.

MMC/SD Card —store as many pictures as you like, depending on the size of the card. Purchase cards on our Web site at
http://www.kodak.com/go/accessories. For storage capacities, see File Storage Capacities.
